lere where foremen-operated plan
ations have been the tradition,
he Farm ?curity Administration
f th U. ?V Department of Agriulture,
is setting up what might
veil be called "an experiment sta
ion in human cooperation."
Some 8,229 acres of land south

This Hale county section is p

Mississippi line. Once a leading
otton center, these fertile praires
have of ate been turned into

enant families are being crowdd
off the land bythis change.
Purpose of this FSA experiment
ifficials explain, is to find a way
nore tenants- can dje- empkoyed^
jrofttably on the land. Small
lairy fyferds rather than cotton

'SPRING RALLY
I
I Manning?Sometime during the
month of April, the pastor, otti
M. E. church launched a Spring
T&TTT to terminate .the nig*ht ui]
May 4; In this rally the women
challenged the men. Throughout
the contest there was a friendly
rivalry filled with interest coining
from both groups.
When the hour came for all
the monies to be turned in, and
the reports read, each group was
certain of victory. The men were
first to report, and reported $00.64.
After which the women came
forward tand reported $80.25,
making a total .of $152.85*.
Inasmuch as the rally was a
success, we are able to pay at
the District Conference our educational
assessment in full.
* Mothers' Day at Trinity.
On Sunday morning, there was
quite an appreciative congregation"
out" for worship in honor
and in memory of "Mother." Preceding
the sermon, a solo was
rendered by Mrs. Beulah Crawford,
"My Mother's Prayers Have
followed Me." After- whir If the
pastor, Rev. L. B. Burgess preach
ed from John 19:25; theme "Mother."
The sermon-'waB a master
piece and was enjoyed by all.
On Sunday night the Missionary
Society sponsored ? "M". .t'r.i.i ?
Day'1 program which consisted of
readings, solos and two - selections
given by the N. F. A: Quintette.
The program rendered
caused the entireicongregation to
feel and appreciate the worth of
a loving Mother. Thu__colIcctumfc
Tor the day amounted to Siy.9?
The church is very much alive
New groups are being formed
and many activities are' being
had. With such enthusiasm being
shown, we see a bi ig' '?future fo7~
